Mubadala Ventures invests in Turvo collaborative logistics platform

Turvo, the world’s first real-time collaborative logistics platform, has announced it has closed $60 million in Series B funding led by Mubadala Ventures, the San Francisco-based venture capital arm of Abu Dhabi's Mubadala Investment Company.

Turvo said it also added new investors G2VP and Next47, the Siemens-backed global venture firm. These funds bring the total investment in the company to nearly $100 million.

Turvo said in a statement that it is revolutionising logistics with a ground-breaking software platform that creates the “Internet of Shipping”, connecting people, businesses, applications, and devices in one AI-driven solution.

“This round of funding speaks to the power of our software platform and the exponential growth we are seeing in the business,” said Eric Gilmore, CEO and co-founder of Turvo.
